KRJ Legal Outsource 

The Supreme Court of India has reiterated the responsibility of married men to financially empower their wives if they lack independent income sources. In a recent ruling, the Court dismissed a petition by a Muslim man contesting an order to pay interim maintenance to his divorced wife under Section 125 CrPC. The Court emphasized that financial support is crucial for securing a homemaker's position within the family. This significant observation aims to reinforce the financial rights of women, reflecting the evolving perspective on marital responsibilities. This development is especially relevant for the legal fraternity and law students tracking family law advancements.
